Phew!! My back is aching, but you know how it is… you stall and stall and leave the transplanting to the last minute and then you worry that they will rot in the planters. I just transplanted a TON of plants. What’s a ton?

24 broccoli plants
12 tomatillo plants
10 tomato plants
5 cukes
5 summer squash
6 monarda (they were planted with the squash by accident. :-O so I had to move them.)
12 lettuce plants
16 pepper plants
12 eggplant plants
12 corn plants
12 leeks
12 thai basil

Am I missing anything? Maybe… but I am too tired to think right now. Here’s hoping we get a rain tomorrow to set them up well!
